Change Login “Username or Email” Label to “Email” on Checkout page / woocommerce

  • Hi!
    I managed to change the Login-label “Username or Email” to “Email” in the form-login.php in the myaccount folder. This is working for the Login procedure under my account.
    But: On top of the checkout page, customers have the possibility to also login if they are Returning Customers.
    Unfortuately the labels for the Login there (on the checkout page) still is the default “username or email”.
    Does anybody know, where to change this?
    I only want customers to use their email adress as username. So I want to get rid of “username” everywhere;)
    Thanks for helping out!
    cheers,
    Mika

  • To change almost any text, you can “translate” it. “Translate” in this context also means using different or shorter words in the same language.

    So try Loco Translate:
    https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/loco-translate/
    Activate, then:
    Dashboard > Loco Translate > Plugins > WooCommerce > select your language > Edit

    If you have a theme override template, look at
    Dashboard > Loco Translate > Themes > your-theme-name > …

    In either case, click the Sync button, then filter for the string you want to change.

    Hi mappel,

    We can change the login form on checkout page via form-login.php inside global directory.
    Copy plugins/woocommerce/templates/global/form-login.php to your theme’s woocomerce directory -> your-theme/woocommerce/global/form-login.php then edit the template as required.

    Thanks.
